| Scientific title | UK FASHIoN: Feasibility study of a trial of Arthroscopic Surgery for Hip Impingement compared with Non-operative care |
| Study acronym | UK FASHIoN |
| Study objectives | We plan to establish whether it is feasible to undertake an RCT of hip arthroscopy versus best conservative care for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). More details can be found at: http://www.nets.nihr.ac.uk/projects/hta/104102 Protocol can be found at: http://www.nets.nihr.ac.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0004/55408/PRO-10-41-02.pdf |
| Ethics approval(s) | NRES West Midlands, 15/02/2012, ref: 11/WM/0389 |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) |
| Intervention | Hip Arthroscopic Surgery - performed by an experienced trained surgeon. Non-operative care - this will comprise a package of best conservative care; treatment options, including interventions that target patients pain (anti-inflammatory medication, hip joint corticosteroid injection, postural adaptations, exercise, acupuncture, manual therapy techniques) and functional difficulties (lifestyle advice, gait modification, exercise and physical activity). The focus of this intervention will be an individualised, supervised and progressed exercise rehabilitation programme.

Eligibility
| Participant type(s) | Patient |
|---|---|
| Age group | Adult |
| Lower age limit | 16 Years |
| Sex | All |
| Target sample size at registration | 60 |
| Key inclusion criteria | Current inclusion criteria as of 04/02/2013: 1. ≥ 16 years of age 2. They have symptoms of hip pain - they may also have symptoms of clicking, catching or giving way 3. They show radiographic evidence of pincer- or cam-type FAI on plain radiographs and cross-sectional imaging 4. The treating surgeon believes that they would benefit from arthroscopic FAI surgery 5. Able to give written informed consent 6. Able to participate fully in the interventions Previous inclusion criteria until 04/02/2013: 1. Aged 18-50 2. They have symptoms of hip pain - they may also have symptoms of clicking, catching or giving way 3. They show radiographic evidence of pincer- or cam-type FAI on plain radiographs and cross-sectional imaging 4. The treating surgeon believes that they would benefit from arthroscopic FAI surgery 5. Able to give written informed consent 6. Able to participate fully in the interventions |
| Key exclusion criteria | 1. They have previous significant hip pathology such as Perthes disease, slipped upper femoral epiphysis or avascular necrosis 2. They have had a previous hip injury such as acetabular fracture, hip dislocation or femoral neck fracture 3. They already have osteoarthritis, defined as Tonnis grade >150, or more than 2mm loss of superior joint space width on AP pelvic radiograph 4. There is evidence that the patient would be unable to participate fully in the interventions, adhere to trial procedures or to complete questionnaires, such as cognitive impairment or intravenous drug abuse |
